What kind of Interview questions are asked for postgraduate Speech and Language Therapy?
I am applying for the MSc in Speech and Language Therapy at both City and UCL and have interviews set up…I’d like to know what kinds of questions are asked in particular to these courses?
Or just generally for a postgraduate course?
Thanks in advance!
I can tell you the questions I was asked at my speech and language therapy interview (10 years ago) but this was the undergraduate course:
1) What do you think is the difference between speech and language
2) Describe examples of how you have worked successfully as part of a team (incorporating the importance of sharing information in cases of child and adult protection, whilst balancing this with confidentiality
3) At every interview I was asked a question about my perception of disability / labelling (you could drop in some current protocols here, like ‘aiming high’ and ‘early Support’
4) and a topical one: Drop in the Bercow report at any possible opportunity!
Good luck with it; essentially they will be looking for bright enthusiastic and mouldable people!
